I promise I wrote this post a few days ago, but today’s big cloud outage is a perfect example of why creators should be considering getting a blog started again, but if you’d like a bit more detail, I put my thoughts down on my sitehttps://www.ceriselle.org/why-creators-still-need-a-blog/
We’ve toured Climate Pledge Arena twice now, and it turns out it’s more than a hockey arena! My sister didn’t visit the US between 1998 and 2022, and when we finally got her out here, we took her straight from an 11-hour flight to a Kraken game and created a hockey-loving monster. She’s been back every six months since, so we’ve done most of the usual touristy things. The CPA tours have been a favourite…
Had to break my no-feed streak for this one… Yesterday we headed over to Little Beast in Ballard for a roast dinner – I have not been able to find anywhere in the Seattle area that does a roast in the 8 years we’ve been here, and for some reason I haven’t had a roast either of the times we’ve been back to the UK, so as you can imagine, this was pretty exciting! I…
Hi there! I recently realised it’s been years since I properly introduced myself here. If you’re new (or just forgot who I am because I barely post ), hello again! I’m Hayley – a Brit living just outside Seattle with my husband, Alex, and our three chaotic (but very cute) dogs. I started this account ages ago to share outfits, life bits, and things I was loving. These days, it’s evolved into a bit of…
Last month was the first time we’d been back in the UK for a proper visit since moving in 2017, and it was so good to see everyone but nothing makes me feel like I’m home quite like seeing the Eastgate Clock.We went back for just over a week, and fitted in visiting as many friends as possible, which meant driving from London > Bath > Devon > Aberystwyth > Chester > London … well,…
Sorry not sorry for even more sky photos in your timeline. I took the last photo lying down in my driveway at midnight wearing my pj’s. I really hope the neighbours didn’t see me. #northernlights #auroraborealis #seattleblogger #basicbitchonabandwagon
Cake for breakfast? Say less.⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ I hadn’t visited @ladymcakes before, but when @mynameisaiko invited me to be her +1 at a preview event, how could I say no? We sampled the newest flavours, which include Rose, Strawberry (probably my favourite!), Lavender, Berry Mont Blanc, Dassai Blue (which has sake and white chocolate in, yum!) and I had a perfect London Fog latte to go with it.⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ Now I know how delicious these cakes are, going…
Summer Fridays lip butter balms are the new Juicy Tube, except I can actually afford them now
A few weekends ago, I jumped in my car and did my longest solo drive up to Blaine, WA to join other members of @creatorscollectiveseattle for a weekend retreat at the gorgeous @semiahmooretreat. I have to admit, I was a little nervous (you’ll probably recognise this now as an ongoing theme with me going to these sort of events!) but I had a lot of fun! Blaine is where the border crossing into Canada is…
Further proof (if ever it was needed) that I am a terrible content creator.I was invited over to University Village way back in September to visit the Sezane pop up store. It was supposed to be there for the holiday season only, but happily, it’s still open so I popped over again recently.I had known of the brand for a while now because of Carrie’s (@wishwishwish) posts featuring them, but never really checked them out…
7 years (give or take a day or two…) since we got married, and it's still pretty awesome. Would marry again, 13/10.
This is 40 (somehow, because I still feel like I just finished uni a few years ago) 40 always seemed like such a big age, even up to last week, so I’m not sure how I’m grown up enough to have hit this milestone yet! 📸 @ceinewydd who’s a reasonable instahusband sometimes but keeps telling me to say cheese
